Dixie State University Gives Kids a Smile
As part of Dixie State University's Give Kids a Smile event, students and staff from DSU's Department of Dental Hygiene recently teamed up with local dentists to address the dental needs of children throughout the Washington Country region during the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition, students from DSU's Spanish Program donated their time and translation support as needed throughout the event. To help make children's smiles a little brighter, more than $13,600 in donated services including exams, X-rays, fillings, extractions, sealants and fluoride were administered free of charge to 47 children within the community who could not be covered by insurance or Medicaid. Additionally, local dentists from around the St. George community donated $38,292 in dental vouchers to 25 children with more extensive treatment needs.

Trailblazer Sydney Anderson is passionate about volunteering in the community, and she is hopeful that by doing so, it may increase her chances of being accepted into DSU's Nursing Program. In an effort to serve the community and better her chances of having her application accepted, Sydney spent much of her college semester at a local non-profit animal rescue organization, P.A.W.S., as she prepared to apply to nursing school. Sydney has volunteered for three semesters now, accumulating about 75 hours in service commitments.

DSU students spend Spring Break serving the St. George community
As part of Dixie State University's "active learning. active life." approach to education, many DSU students participated in the Alternative Breaks opportunity during Spring Break by giving back to the St. George community. The Alternative Breaks program, which functions under the Student Association's Service Branch, provides service opportunities during school breaks for students who want to give back to local and global communities. In lieu of traveling this year for Spring Break, 23 DSU students chose to give back to the community in a safe and fun way by improving the St. George area through landscaping, gardening and picking up trash.
